Merry Christmas

As I said in the post before, I know I'm WAY behind and blogging about Christmas in February shouldn't be aloud. But I'm going to anyways!!!

We started our Christmas Festivities at my Dad's house with a few of my Dad, brothers, cousins, Grandma, Aunt and Uncle. Just a small get together, nothing huge! We opened presents and ate dinner and just sat around and talked for the rest of the evening. Everyone got Bailey gifts for Christmas already. I hate to see what it's like next year when she's physically here to open them and receive them!!! She had more gifts under the tree than everyone else combined I think!!!
Rian posing with a shirt he got. I believe we got him and Rilee a car emergency set. It came with jumper cables, flares, first aide kit, stuff you would need if you broke down. Not something that they exactly had in mind, but it's practical and useful!! One of these times when they are broke down they will be calling me thanking me rather than asking for Daniel or I to come help them!!!


This year we actually got to spend the week after Christmas with Lexi. If you remember correctly, last year she didn't get to open her gifts till April! So this was awesome finally getting her around the holidays rather than months after!!!

I think the big box of Legos were the biggest hit. She LOVES building with Legos and you obviously can never have enough!!!

Daniel opening up his gifts.

I know this isn't the best picture,but Espn was sooo excited about his gift he wouldn't sit still long enough for me to get one. He just carried this around like this until someone took the time to help him open it!!!

Boy was he a happy puppy for a couple of days with this monstrous bone!!!



Checking out her Legos again!

I think overall she has an enjoyable Christmas. Next year is going to be harder than ever. We had a heck of a time trying to decide what to get her this year, let along next year!!! She's just getting to that age where she's too old for toys, but not old enough for teenaged stuff yet!! Ugh, I don't even want to think about it yet!!!

Espn's Christmas picture!!! It takes a lot to get a moose of a dog to sit still long enough, look at the camera and let me take a picture. Let's just say there were lots of treats involved in capturing this!!!

Eric, Maria and CJ came up for the holidays too!! Boy were we excited to see them!!! I hadn't seen CJ in months!!! They have tons of people to visit while they are here, but they always make a day for us!!! We couldn't be happier to have them here!!!

CJ's getting so big!!! I couldn't believe how much he's grown!!! Makes me miss him even more than I already do!!! Him and Espn are BEST BUDS by the way. CJ absolutely loves him!! He's not scared at all by his size. And Espn does so well with CJ too!!!

CJ getting ready to open his gift from us!!!


We got him a car hauler. It even came with the trucks to load on the trailer. He loved it!!!

Although, not long after, he decided he'd rather play with Bailey's rings lol!!!

Christmas was enjoyable this year! But the only thing I could think about the entire time was being able to spend next Christmas with my baby girl! It's going to 100x more hectic and enjoyable with her around next year!!!
